1947 T100 with sport front fender, Flanders risers and bars, small headlight and chopped rear fender with bullet tail lights. Propped up with a ZIRWES sidestand.
Not exactly sure, but I think it dates close to 47-48. I've been plucking them from other posts because I haven't had the motivation to search through those life archeves myself!
It's wonderful that you are building those bikes, I wish I had something, anything to help you with...I am the grand-daughter of Phil Cancilla and I don't have anything to remember my gradfather by. Good luck!
Wow, thanks for posting and the support. Unfortunately most of the old time racers, even guys that raced in the 1960's did not hold on to anything. Probably just living in the moment and not thinking the old stuff would have any value?

Hey, nice 1947 T100. Do you know what year the pic is from. Those Life archives are fantastic.
